Endor Commando/ Rebel Soldier/ Trooper

Endor Commando/Endor Rebel Soldier/Endor Trooper – These troopers accompanied Han Solo, Leia and Chewbacca to the forest moon of Endor in order to destroy the shield generator that was protecting the second Death Star thereby allowing the Rebel Fleet to destroy it. The troopers were caught in a trap set forth by the Emperor but managed to overcome the odds and complete the mission.

“Desert” style combat or hiking boots. Canvas/Natural upper Target Color: “Sand” FS 33531/RAL 1011 “Brown Beige”; Molded sole, with thick “lug” tread. The sole continues up over the front ½”/12mm of the toe. The original “Sierra” brand boots are long out of production; however there are Israeli Scout Commando Boots that are very close in design and can be either purchased or used as a reference.

4. Gaiters:

A tube of heavy Cotton/Natural fabric starting from the bridge of the foot (covering most of the laces) continuing up past the boot top to slightly below mid-calf. 5-8 sets of eyelets (depending on your measurements). No clear photos of the laces have been found yet; most likely surplus olive-green “para-cord” was used. Color: The originals appear to have been made from a tan or sand material, but were so heavily dyed and painted to appear used they look dark brown or olive when actually seen on screen.

5. Helmet:

Consisting of an AN-H-15 cloth helmet (or replica) with a ribbed strip on the top, a replica rigid outer ring, and cloth bill

6. Olive Drab Belt with pouches

7. Short, light-colored leather work gloves

8. The following combinations are acceptable for formal for the upper torso in addition to the tan long sleeved shirt:

A camo painted trenchcoat – camo paint should be applied to a tan trenchcoat, if tan trenchcoat/lab coat can not be obtained, you will have to dye trenchcoat/labcoat tan first and then camo paint.

A camo painted snow jacket – camo paint must be applied to a tan base. Since snow jackets are by nature white in color, you must dye jacket tan first.
